DiSCos

The DiSCos package contains tools for computing counterfactual quantile functions in a Distributional Synthetic Controls (DiSco) setting, following the method proposed in Gunsilius (2023).

Warning This package is currently under development. A first version will be released soon.

Getting Started

Have a look at the vignette replicating the empirical application in the paper to get started.

Gunsilius, Florian F. 2023. “Distributional Synthetic Controls.” Econometrica 91 (3): 1105–17.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
